\v 18 But listen! I will cause you to be strong, like a city that has strong walls around it. You will be as strong as an iron pillar or a bronze wall. All the people in the land of Judah—including the kings, the royal officials, and the priests—will not be able to defeat you.
Thanks to Bob Johnson,

Hab 1:4-5 now reads:
\s5
\m
\s2 Yahweh replied to me
\q1
\v 5 "This is happening, but look around at what is happening in the other nations. \q2 If you look, you will be amazed, and even astonished, since I am doing something \q1 during this time that you would never have believed would happen, \q2 even if someone told you about it.
Hab 1:11-12
\s5
\m
\s2 Habakkuk asks Yahweh another question
\q
\v 12 "Are you not from ancient times, Yahweh my God, my Holy One? We will not die. \q Yahweh has ordained them for judgment, and you, Rock, have established them for correction.
\v 12 A stupid person cannot become wise in their understanding
\q2 any more than a wild donkey's colt can give birth to a human being.
Thanks to Bob Johnson for setting this one up.

\v 27 You will do anything to get something for yourselves! You would even play a game to see who gets an orphan as a prize, \q2 and you would barter to sell your own friend!
